Kolkata-based Adamas University has announced Covid-Amphan scholarships worth Rs 2 crore, which will benefit about 500 higher education aspirants in eastern and north-eastern India. These are being offered keeping in mind the economic loss in this region due to Covid-19 and property losses due to the Amphan cyclone that ravaged West Bengal and parts of Odisha.
